N0.- 826,308. Specification of Letters Patent.

ratented July 17, 1906. Application Hled MRYZV, 1905. Serial No. 262.700.

To al? whom t may concern: supported above the grate and is provided witha Haring upper edge e and a dentated lower edge e. The Haring edge of the pot smoke-consuming Hue F is supported above the front edge of the Hre-pot, the free edge of the baffle-plate connecting therewith My invention is an improvement in stoves,

AHrepotE of the form shown in Fig. l is radiating capacity of the stove, since they IOO IIO

draw cold air from beneath the stove, heat the same, and pass it up through the upper opening.

in operation the damper b is lowered to 5 close communication between the rear flue and the smoke-vent while the 'fire is being kindled, making a direct draft from the firepot through the smoke-consuming chamber into the smoke-vent. Then the fire is well [o kindled, the direct draft may be shut off by raising the damper to close the communication between the upper part of the stove and the smoke-vent, thus forcing the heated gases downwardly through the front flue, the base- Hue, and upwardly through the rear flue, The draft in either direction may be regulated by the check-drafts. The magazine being tightly covered, all the draft must be through the opening between the baffle-plate zo and the front lining-section.

The smoke-consuming fluevis an efficient addition to the heating capacity of the stove, since it utilizes a considerable quantity of gaseous fuel otherwise wasted. The smokeconsuming fiue F communicates with the outer air by means of an opening through the casing, in which is arranged a check-draft K.

When the check-draft is opened, the air enters through the flue, passing out through the 3o perforations and driving the unconsumed gases back upon the fire.

Having thus described my invention, what I claim. as new, and. desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
